Terry Bogard. Kinda a big deal. Becoming an even bigger deal in modern times it turns out as well, so how did we get here? Where did it all begin? Lets talk everything Terry from his humble beginnings to his far very, very far reach in gaming. THE BOGARDIFICATION HAS BEGUN (also check the vid description for some other fine Terry vids and maybe leave a like if ya like the vid why not!)
@rooflemonger hey do u think he is more popular than Ryu and do u think he is the most popular fighting game character, and u should do like a half hour stream on a poll who is the popular see what ur fan think. From all the main Protagonist, she is no idea she said from the leading games
As one of the elders who watched fighting games grow up with him, Terry has always had a special place in my heart. He's typically been one of those fighters that had a tool for pretty much every occasion, and always managed to feel "strong" without being cheap and overwhelming. When things get serious, Terry is the anchor of my KoF team, and that's due to his tendency to perform even when nonsense starts raining from the sky. Capcom might have stumbled upon the fighting game formula that we all know and love, but SNK is where my true loyalty lies. They embraced the genre more than any other company I'm aware of.
Fatal Fury is not the first KOF. There is a difference between "King of Fighter" and "THE king of fighters" The game (from Oda himself and japanese magazines of the 90's ) was a crossover between Art of Fighting and Fatal Fury with some SNK guests sharing the same lore. (Because all SNK Characters doesn't share the same lore, Southtown etc..)
A lot of people don’t know that when promoting a pawn in chess you can actually choose to promote to Terry Bogard instead of a regular piece. He’s banned in most chess tournaments but it really goes to show his influence, even back in the 6th century
Terry got revenge over the dude who killed his father and adopted his son. He broke the chain of revenge. He achieved ultimate peace, but learned to love the fight. He just does what he loves. Lowkey he's a mental health goal.
Terry has that same appeal as Captain America has in the fact that they're poor kids in the big city that became somebody with nothing but determination and never giving up. Both of them are underdogs who like a good scrap and has hearts of gold and on top of it, they're incredibly humble despite being worldly famous. Very relatable characters to most.
I mean it makes sense they both are shoto archetype fighters(1 being in MVC), they both have a sense of justice and even have stars on thier outfits. You know who else also have all those same qualities, basically the new protagonist that's in SF6 and is Luke. I mean both him & Terry lost their father at a young age, they both have a positive attitude & fun happy desposition, they both enjoy playing video games & eating junk food. Hell all 3 of them are blonde American fighters.
@@stolasthegreatprince4166 LOOOOOOOL! I mean you're not wrong. I'd say it gave him a shot if nothing else. Bro did you see that list of symptoms before the serum? 😂
@raddad1464 Hey I thought Luke wasn't a shoto either but I was proven wrong. Terry is only marginally a shoto-esque character, as his moves all function differently despite being similar to a staple shotoclone setup. He has a Power Wave which is the standard fireball (but goes grounded), his Rising tackle which is his DP uppercut (which is not a charge move in SF6 btw) and his Burn Knuckle which is lunging move that rushes foward. If you don't believe me then type up "Is Terry a shoto?" and find out yourself.
Really hit the nail on why we all love Terry. In a see of super powered martial artists, evil dictators, ninjas, and military assassins, Terry is just a regular dude who likes fighting.
Let's not forget how insane it was that Terry got into Smash. And then Fighting Ex Lair. Mai got into DOA. Geese got into Tekken. And here we are. Terry is in Streetfighter. I still can't believe it even though it makes lot of sese.
@@Rooflemonger But here’s the things. FGC things tend to stay within the FGC. Smash Bros breaks into mainstream. Hell, Persona and Dragon Quest, JRPGs unknown in the West, now have international presence thanks to Smash Bros Ultimate
Quick note as to _why_ Sol is clearly inspired by Terry: for those who aren't aware, Daisuke Ishiwatari started out in SNK, I think on the team for _The Last Blade._ He worked on a buncha titles before leaving with a group of fellow SNK alumnae to form Team Neo Blood, which was the dev team that made the original _Guilty Gear._ Considering that Terry grew out of Takashi Nishiyama leaving Capcom and moving to SNK, it's kind of like Sol is to SNK as Terry is to Capcom.
I had read that Team Neo Blood consisted of developers from Dark Stalkers, Samurai Shodown, Last Blade and KoF, which is why GG primarily feels like a combination of Dark Stalkers and Samurai Shodown.
@@ShinUltima The Last Blade 2 is a very anime game, quicker bigger combos, air tech, tech chasing. Not that those aspects aren't a thing in Darkstalkers or whatnot but still. Would say Guilty Gear probably has more Last Blade blood than SamSho, myself
Gunflame is Power Wave, Bandit revolver is Crack Shoot, Bandit Bringer is Power Dunk, Fafnir is Burn Knuckle. I guess he really is Terry. I play them both and I never noticed them
I was about to fall asleep tonight when I realized: Fatal Fury in Japanese was called Garou Densetsu which means "The Legend of the Hungry Wolf" in Japan. Terry Bogard is known as the "Legendary Hungry Wolf". And Anila is Terry ANILA IS A WOLF IN SHEEP'S CLOTHING
As a mexican who always included Terry in my team in KoF 2002 back in the arcades of the early 2000's, seeing him grow in popularity this much brings tears to my eyes, I remember screaming in joy when he was announced for smash.
Just to add to the evidence of Terry’s stardom, back in the late 90’s and early 00’s I was a member of a fighting game message board called Higher Voltage. There was a “Greatest Fighting Game Character of All Time” vote and Terry crushed the competition. I’ll never forget that. 😂
@@ShinUltima Hahaha! Ultima, the spreadsheet master! I was a scrub, so you won’t remember me. I was Carbonater back in those days. I hope that all is well with you.

Technically Terry doing cameos everywhere started with Fighting EX Layer in 2018 that was a year before Smash included him. Of course not counting SNK with Capcom crossover as those are more kof with SF crossover than just Terry.
@@bazzjedimaster is not about the date, is about the impact, Smash fighters reveals has been the peak of Fighting Game Hype on a popular level, we can scream a ton for reveals of SF, Tekken, MK, KOF etc, but all of them are still a niche sphere, Smash had a massive and casual approach, smth the FGC havent grasped, not even MK or SF have done something similar, this last one had a little approach to it with SF6 and is still nothing in proportion, nobody outside the FGC cared about someone like Terry until Smash
Dude it’s not just Terry, SNK characters in general have been crossing over with a THOUSAND different franchises, including mobile games specifically directed to the Chinese market.
I loved how you explained terry in one of your older videos. “He goes and gets burgers at the bar with his buddies and his on and off again girlfriend, Blue Mary.” Then he whoops some ass with fireballs and shit
Terry is solid in K groove super basic and easy, although iirc he's dumb in S groove cause buster wolf is safe on block so you can just spam that shit forever once you hit the threshold.
And yes to head off the fight SNK heroines is 100% canon. You can not like it, but you have to deal with it. Yes its weird, I know, but this is the world we live in. At least like Chun or Juri or something will get a fatal cutie terry skin out of it in SF6 so we still benefit in the end.
Someday, SNK Heroines Tag Team Frenzy will get the recognition it deserves. Once you get used to the unique gameplay and the fact that you can only KO opponents with a Super, it's a very fun game. Its mechanics were well thought out. I've seen online matches from Japanese pro players, and those are very intense fights. I hope SNK makes a sequel of SNK Heroines, with more characters, costumes and stages!
@@glacierwolf2155 To me, SNK Heroines made Kukri more interesting and funny 😆 Didn't care for him in KOF XIV, he was just the "character that tries to be edgy"
The funniest thing about the Axl and Billy Kane thing is that on top of everything else, they share the same height, same weight, same blood type, and the same goddamn birthday
There's also Zinogre's moveset in the Monster Hunter games. The beast's moveset, along with the creature's full title of "Thunder Wolf Wyvern" are direct nods to Terry Bogard's moveset and his nickname "Garou Densetsu" or "The Legendary Hungry Wolf".
I’ll be honest, I went most of my life not knowing about Terry, but in these recent years it’s become very apparent to me that he’s genuinely one of the coolest mfs to ever do it, love this guy now
Admittedly knew nothing of Terry prior to recent FF reveal. Then got overwhelmed with information and I’m excited for what he’s doing in fighting games.
I really love all the threatment that Terry is getting. My man is a legend and SNK itself it's really tough (but they could do better with my boy Kyo 😔😔)
I'm just glad that Athena is also near the front of the CvS art. She's always been kind of a distant 3rd, 4th or even 5th poster child for SNK but she's always been my fave lol
13:28 Cygames absolutely LOVE SNK and the faction Anila is a part of, the Twelve Divine Generals are all fun references to SNK characters. The SNK wiki actually has a page for GranBlue Fantasy that contains a lists of quite a few referenced characters as well.
Terry has been one of my favorite video game characters since the 90s. Easily in my top-3, usually in position 2. He's just such a great character, and I've been so frustrated to see him so stagnant within the KOF games since he was never able to actually grow as a character or influence the story. Seeing the love he's getting (and finally having a game where his story can continue again) I've been stoked lately. I'm so happy to see him get the attention he so rightly deserves.
"Satsui no Bogard". I like Terry mostly because he's not a brooding, moody teenager with out of controls powers and such, he isn't from a long lineage that allows him to spit fire and never finish high school. He likes to fight, but is not obsessed with being the strongest or whatever. He's positive, never a sour loser or winner. He smiles all the time. He's just cool like that.
I've been on the Terry (and just fatal fury in general) hype train since 1990 something. I still vividly remember the day my best friend put a Fatal Fury: The Motion Picture VHS in my hands. The rest is history.
I started playing fighting games because of Terry. He was added to smash Bros and he looked like such a cool guy I started playing through the entire Fatal Fury series then I branched out into being a fan a fighting games in general. I cannot describe how excited I am to see Fatal Fury come back.
Terry is just a regular blonde American guy who lost his father at a young age, enjoys playing video games, basketball, eating junk food, is a shoto archetype fighter that loves to fight and has a star plaster on his outfit(s). All of those traits sounds a lot like another certain MEMPHIS/ BEAST MODE BABY fighter that's in Street Fighter 6 and I'll be surprise if Terry was the inspiration for him lol.
@@Rockstingray790 I don't even think we might have to pay him, especially considering that Aleks' in general is currently trying to get all of the SF6 EN VAs on his stream, so Terry's EN VA is probably gonna be in there as well
Thanks for this video. I've never played a fighting game before, but ever since the MvC collection was announced, ive been watching fighting game UA-camrs talk about the genre. You should make this type of video a series. Like videos explaining fighting games to casuals like me. I think it would get more people involved in the genre. Subscribed
I believe Fatal Fury was also the first fighting game that got adapted to other media. The anime trilogy (the 3rd being a theatrical release) finished before Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie came out. Terry was a trailblazer. His popularity alongside Mai's is why many are left scratching their heads about her being paired up w/ Andy instead.
Ever since I played Fatal Fury with my dad on his old PS2 when I was in my early teens and I've never stopped loving Terry. I was so hyped when I saw him added to Super Smash Bros Ultimate
Terry has such a distinct, simple and catching design. My first SNK fighting game was King of Fighters 98 and he was also the first character I immediately selected because he just looked so cool. He has always been my main in every game that has him since then.
I’m so glad he’s getting the love universally that he’s always deserved even though he was always hot underground but now it just seems like there’s no way you can play video games and not know who he is. He’s an icon.
it extends to more than just fighting games. You know Rude from Final Fantasy VII? When you fight him in Remake, he’s got shockwaves, he’s got flip-kicks, he’ll toss you in the air just to power dunk ya, hes an action-rpg Bogard.
Also, in Shadow Hearts: Covenant for the PS2, there's a side quest about one of your party members seeking out and dueling other wolves throughout the world. There's one named Kelly who's wearing a red trucker cap like Terry's. ua-cam.com/video/ETeWwjBb-M8/v-deo.html
if I can get a bit personal here if it weren't for Terry getting into smash and watching Max's terry legacy during the build up to his release I would not have become the die hard FGC fan that I am today Terry in Smash CHANGED. MY. LIFE. and I can't thank him enough for it Thank you Terry and thank you SNK for making me appreciate the beauty of the Fighting game
No wonder every time I looked at Axle through out the years, I couldn't help but think of Billy Cain, like "why does he look so familiar" he just has that Billy Cain vibe.
Terry is literally my favorite fighting game character of all time, though I never played his original game. And now I see why, he just shows up and every time he shows up I feel like we could spar and then have a barbeque party afterwards. Also got the hat irl.
Another place you might not expect a Terry Bogard reference: Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Rebirth has Rude, one of the Turks, use moves that are basically Power Wave and Triple Geyser.
I was terrified to use it as a title cause like, SEO and the algorithm has no idea what to do with that kind of word so hopefully it doesn't bite me in the butt
i still remember being so shocked when Terry came to smash bros, I felt like I was the only in ANY of my friend groups who knew who he was. nobody i knew, not even my after school smash bros game club members knew who he was. Terry will ALWAYS be my GOAT
It's not just that Terry's a regular dude but a nice guy who gets along with just about everyone, encourages those he defeats to get stronger and even tries to reach out to the anti-social grumps of SNK like Iori and K'. If you really think about it, Terry was also the original Luke as far as how they view fighting and how it influences their actions. Plus, Terry could honestly pass off as Luke's big brother.
I love Terry so much. Even tho I play multiple games with him in it, I never mained him (except for garou), but even then I just like to have him there. When I see Terry on the screen I go "teehee" and everything is great.
people forget that he was originally the mascot of snk with his pet monkey, the original main character of street fighter 2 for those that know, and the original king of fighters that caused the fighting game genre to peak in japan and world wide. the original
I'm much more of a Ryu fan, but I have huge respect for SNK fighters. Terry and his brother Andy are cool characters, and so is Joe Higashi and Mai Shiranui. The Fatal Fury anime is pretty damn cool also. Capcom, SNK, Marvel , Nintendo, Namco, Bandai, Arc Sys, I hope all these companies continue collaborating
As a smash player getting into other fighting games. The fact sakurai is super into Terry is really cool. I forgot how much he gushed about him in that reveal. Sakurais youtube series about developing these games has turned him for this man behind the curtain into a normal cool guy. Anyways I love sakurai even as a melee player.
Terry has been my favorite video game character ever since Fatal Fury 3. I'm so happy to see him in the spot light and I'll main him in any and every game he's in.
I'll still never forget the time I met a guy on the bus who looked exactly like Terry but if we worked in construction and he offered his seat to me and my brother.
I remember getting him in random when playing smash and the only thing I could think was "Huh, when was Terry first released and when Sol first released."
Just going to add that there was another Terry clone in a mid-90's fighting game, that being Roy Bromwell from Rival Schools. Roy is an American who has four of Terry's moves (Wave, Knuckle, Tackle, Geyser), but he differs in being a rich kid who likes American football
Terry is my favorite fighting game character of all time. It’s been great seeing him appear in multiple different games and I love his moves, voice-lines, and his vibe in general. It’s because of him that I had the motivation to start my fgc journey just out of the love of the character.
Its funny how Terry is really one of the most chill personalities of all fighting games, yet the man is practically a deity when it comes to fighting, dude's sheer power level is equivalent to one punch man and his potential is unlimited akin to Goku. The man is a force of nature
Terry Bogard. Kinda a big deal. Becoming an even bigger deal in modern times it turns out as well, so how did we get here? Where did it all begin?

And yes to head off the fight SNK heroines is 100% canon. You can not like it, but you have to deal with it. Yes its weird, I know, but this is the world we live in. At least like Chun or Juri or something will get a fatal cutie terry skin out of it in SF6 so we still benefit in the end.
Kukuri has some _major_ issues that need to be addressed. Preferably in therapy.
My head canon likes to think it's reaping what he sows for SNK Allstars mobile.
The funniest thing about that to me is that it confirms that Iori's "hatred" for Kyo is actually just him being a tsundere.
Someday, SNK Heroines Tag Team Frenzy will get the recognition it deserves.
Once you get used to the unique gameplay and the fact that you can only KO opponents with a Super, it's a very fun game.
Its mechanics were well thought out.
I've seen online matches from Japanese pro players, and those are very intense fights.
I hope SNK makes a sequel of SNK Heroines, with more characters, costumes and stages!
@@glacierwolf2155 To me, SNK Heroines made Kukri more interesting and funny 😆
Didn't care for him in KOF XIV, he was just the "character that tries to be edgy"
Thanks for this fantastic homage and the "Bogardisation" !
We love this guy for so many years... Legend.
Terry's sheer charisma, positive vibe, humbleness and subtle branding cannot be overstated.
Now all I’m gonna hear in my head when I think about Terry is *“SOL BADGUY!!!”*
Buster Wolf: Are you OK?
Heavy Mob Cemetery: You won't be okay!
The funniest thing about the Axl and Billy Kane thing is that on top of everything else, they share the same height, same weight, same blood type, and the same goddamn birthday
Wow
I attribute all of this to Sakurai and it was my introduction to the character and it made me fall in love with him. Thank you Sakurai.
That sheep girl will never be Terry
*Sees her do a buster wolf and spits out my cereal*
Well attribute Terry to Sakurai, cause without Terry none of this smash nonsense woulda happened to begin with.
@@Rooflemonger you make a very compelling point. 🤔
Without kof... Super smash won't excited @@Rooflemonger
There's also Zinogre's moveset in the Monster Hunter games. The beast's moveset, along with the creature's full title of "Thunder Wolf Wyvern" are direct nods to Terry Bogard's moveset and his nickname "Garou Densetsu" or "The Legendary Hungry Wolf".
I’ll be honest, I went most of my life not knowing about Terry, but in these recent years it’s become very apparent to me that he’s genuinely one of the coolest mfs to ever do it, love this guy now
Admittedly knew nothing of Terry prior to recent FF reveal. Then got overwhelmed with information and I’m excited for what he’s doing in fighting games.
I really love all the threatment that Terry is getting. My man is a legend and SNK itself it's really tough (but they could do better with my boy Kyo 😔😔)
I say put Kyo and Iori in Tekken
Another thing about Terry from Smash, he had the longest presentation out of all the DLC characters before or after. Sakurai loves Terry that much.
I'm just glad that Athena is also near the front of the CvS art. She's always been kind of a distant 3rd, 4th or even 5th poster child for SNK but she's always been my fave lol
So, Terry coming to SF6 is just his homecoming. He's going back to where it all began.
13:28 Cygames absolutely LOVE SNK and the faction Anila is a part of, the Twelve Divine Generals are all fun references to SNK characters. The SNK wiki actually has a page for GranBlue Fantasy that contains a lists of quite a few referenced characters as well.
"It's all just Terry?"
"Always has been."
Terry has been one of my favorite video game characters since the 90s. Easily in my top-3, usually in position 2. He's just such a great character, and I've been so frustrated to see him so stagnant within the KOF games since he was never able to actually grow as a character or influence the story.
Seeing the love he's getting (and finally having a game where his story can continue again) I've been stoked lately. I'm so happy to see him get the attention he so rightly deserves.
"Satsui no Bogard". I like Terry mostly because he's not a brooding, moody teenager with out of controls powers and such, he isn't from a long lineage that allows him to spit fire and never finish high school. He likes to fight, but is not obsessed with being the strongest or whatever. He's positive, never a sour loser or winner. He smiles all the time.
He's just cool like that.
I've been on the Terry (and just fatal fury in general) hype train since 1990 something. I still vividly remember the day my best friend put a Fatal Fury: The Motion Picture VHS in my hands. The rest is history.
I had to buy the Terry amiibo when I saw it. I could hear him calling to me. “ARE YOU OKAY?!”
I started playing fighting games because of Terry. He was added to smash Bros and he looked like such a cool guy I started playing through the entire Fatal Fury series then I branched out into being a fan a fighting games in general. I cannot describe how excited I am to see Fatal Fury come back.
The King of Fighters is awesome too.
@@AmazingSpider-Man I played 95, 98, 2000, 13, and 15 I played them alongside Fatal Fury
It's cool to hear this kind of story.
@@hermontarmand2404 this is Sakurai’s Vision
Terry is just a regular blonde American guy who lost his father at a young age, enjoys playing video games, basketball, eating junk food, is a shoto archetype fighter that loves to fight and has a star plaster on his outfit(s).
All of those traits sounds a lot like another certain MEMPHIS/ BEAST MODE BABY fighter that's in Street Fighter 6 and I'll be surprise if Terry was the inspiration for him lol.
Somebody pay Aleks Le to say buster Wolf in Luke's voice lol
@@Rockstingray790 I don't even think we might have to pay him, especially considering that Aleks' in general is currently trying to get all of the SF6 EN VAs on his stream, so Terry's EN VA is probably gonna be in there as well
Oh snap you are right! Luke has the military angle but takes that away and he's just Terry!
@@ZenPaladinI mean Luke is literally based on Terry.
Yeah they white wash terry
Thanks for this video. I've never played a fighting game before, but ever since the MvC collection was announced, ive been watching fighting game UA-camrs talk about the genre. You should make this type of video a series. Like videos explaining fighting games to casuals like me. I think it would get more people involved in the genre. Subscribed
I usually make vids like this where I feel its appropriate going into something big. My whole brand is basically helping people into the FGC lol
Loved Terry in media ever since I saw him Fatal Fury The Motion Picture back in the 90's. Always a delight when he shows up.
😂 it's like that scene from Puss in Boots:
"You never knew it Puss, but I was always..
There" - Humpty Alexander Dumpty
When people are more hyped for Terry than Mai, you know he's really popular.
I believe Fatal Fury was also the first fighting game that got adapted to other media. The anime trilogy (the 3rd being a theatrical release) finished before Street Fighter II: The Animated Movie came out. Terry was a trailblazer. His popularity alongside Mai's is why many are left scratching their heads about her being paired up w/ Andy instead.
its crazy you have viewers who's parents were shitting themselves in cribs as you were playing street fighter.
well I was a kid myself back then but yeah im an old bum basically lol
Ever since I played Fatal Fury with my dad on his old PS2 when I was in my early teens and I've never stopped loving Terry. I was so hyped when I saw him added to Super Smash Bros Ultimate
“Hey, Terry! How’s my car?”
“BURNING!”
“…”
“Are you okay?…”
“Not really, Ter. Not great.•
My first time seeing Terry was in smash! I learned a lot about him here, thank you! You're an awesome guy!
Terry has such a distinct, simple and catching design. My first SNK fighting game was King of Fighters 98 and he was also the first character I immediately selected because he just looked so cool. He has always been my main in every game that has him since then.
Man you dropped some serious knowledge on us about Terry. Thanks appreciate it
Never forget when the founders of America signed the Declaration of Terrypendence.
A month ago, there was that story where some Mexican lady saw Terry Bogard in a piece of toast.
I’m so glad he’s getting the love universally that he’s always deserved even though he was always hot underground but now it just seems like there’s no way you can play video games and not know who he is. He’s an icon.
it extends to more than just fighting games. You know Rude from Final Fantasy VII? When you fight him in Remake, he’s got shockwaves, he’s got flip-kicks, he’ll toss you in the air just to power dunk ya, hes an action-rpg Bogard.
Great vid. Left me with knowledge in my brain and a smile on my face.
Also, in Shadow Hearts: Covenant for the PS2, there's a side quest about one of your party members seeking out and dueling other wolves throughout the world. There's one named Kelly who's wearing a red trucker cap like Terry's.
ua-cam.com/video/ETeWwjBb-M8/v-deo.html
Terry is the guy you wanna crack a beer with after he beats the devil out of you 😂
if I can get a bit personal here
if it weren't for Terry getting into smash and watching Max's terry legacy during the build up to his release
I would not have become the die hard FGC fan that I am today
Terry in Smash CHANGED. MY. LIFE. and I can't thank him enough for it
Thank you Terry and thank you SNK for making me appreciate the beauty of the Fighting game
No wonder every time I looked at Axle through out the years, I couldn't help but think of Billy Cain, like "why does he look so familiar" he just has that Billy Cain vibe.
You summed up a lot of reasons why Terry is my all time favorite character.
Terry is literally my favorite fighting game character of all time, though I never played his original game. And now I see why, he just shows up and every time he shows up I feel like we could spar and then have a barbeque party afterwards. Also got the hat irl.
You either die a Terry or live long enough to become a Bogard.
I feel like Smash definitely boosted his popularity. He is way more known
This made me realize how much I want Feather as DLC for Granblue. Hope we'll eventually get him just because he is Rock Howard.
Another place you might not expect a Terry Bogard reference: Final Fantasy 7 Remake and Rebirth has Rude, one of the Turks, use moves that are basically Power Wave and Triple Geyser.
You get a like and a comment just for Bogardification.
I was terrified to use it as a title cause like, SEO and the algorithm has no idea what to do with that kind of word so hopefully it doesn't bite me in the butt
i still remember being so shocked when Terry came to smash bros, I felt like I was the only in ANY of my friend groups who knew who he was. nobody i knew, not even my after school smash bros game club members knew who he was. Terry will ALWAYS be my GOAT
It's not just that Terry's a regular dude but a nice guy who gets along with just about everyone, encourages those he defeats to get stronger and even tries to reach out to the anti-social grumps of SNK like Iori and K'. If you really think about it, Terry was also the original Luke as far as how they view fighting and how it influences their actions. Plus, Terry could honestly pass off as Luke's big brother.
I love Terry so much. Even tho I play multiple games with him in it, I never mained him (except for garou), but even then I just like to have him there.
When I see Terry on the screen I go "teehee" and everything is great.
people forget that he was originally the mascot of snk with his pet monkey, the original main character of street fighter 2 for those that know, and the original king of fighters that caused the fighting game genre to peak in japan and world wide. the original
I'm much more of a Ryu fan, but I have huge respect for SNK fighters. Terry and his brother Andy are cool characters, and so is Joe Higashi and Mai Shiranui. The Fatal Fury anime is pretty damn cool also. Capcom, SNK, Marvel , Nintendo, Namco, Bandai, Arc Sys, I hope all these companies continue collaborating
all this is TERRYfying
Thanks!
Thank you very much for the support!!
As a smash player getting into other fighting games. The fact sakurai is super into Terry is really cool. I forgot how much he gushed about him in that reveal. Sakurais youtube series about developing these games has turned him for this man behind the curtain into a normal cool guy. Anyways I love sakurai even as a melee player.
Terry has been my favorite video game character ever since Fatal Fury 3. I'm so happy to see him in the spot light and I'll main him in any and every game he's in.
Terry : Drama free fighting game protag. He did all he need to do , now he's just chilin
it's insane how terry's design has so much personality in it while you see ryu is just bland as water.
Ah... My favorite fighting game character archetype: "Terry Bogard in all ways but physical"
I'll still never forget the time I met a guy on the bus who looked exactly like Terry but if we worked in construction and he offered his seat to me and my brother.
I remember getting him in random when playing smash and the only thing I could think was "Huh, when was Terry first released and when Sol first released."
Just going to add that there was another Terry clone in a mid-90's fighting game, that being Roy Bromwell from Rival Schools. Roy is an American who has four of Terry's moves (Wave, Knuckle, Tackle, Geyser), but he differs in being a rich kid who likes American football
Terry is my favorite fighting game character of all time. It’s been great seeing him appear in multiple different games and I love his moves, voice-lines, and his vibe in general. It’s because of him that I had the motivation to start my fgc journey just out of the love of the character.
And there was the Terry Bogard line of contraceptives.
Yeah that was a thing too, for a quick minute..then fizzled out real quick.
Its funny how Terry is really one of the most chill personalities of all fighting games, yet the man is practically a deity when it comes to fighting, dude's sheer power level is equivalent to one punch man and his potential is unlimited akin to Goku. The man is a force of nature
Terry is living in my walls. Help me. I just heard a muffled "are you okay?"
